The service
A car that keeps pace with a quick airport. These six are what a London City booking with us is built around.
A delayed landing moves the pickup, not the fare.
A quiet Executive car for calls and email on the way across London.
Your chauffeur can wait in arrivals with a name board.
Morning drop and evening collection, booked together.
Smartly dressed, discreet and on time.
Booking line open 24/7, for first flights out and late landings.
Who books it
Mostly business travellers. The airport is in the Royal Docks, three miles from Canary Wharf and five from the City by its own figures, and it describes its speed and efficiency as what time-poor business travellers value.
A short-haul flight to a meeting, with a laptop bag and a small case.
Accounts for staff who fly often, and visiting clients collected.
One fixed fare and one number to call.
Fixed fares
From your pickup, the class and any return leg, fixed when you book. We do not publish prices; there is no meter and no surge pricing.
Your pickup, the class (Standard Saloon, Executive, VIP and Minibus) and any extra stops.
Slow traffic across London or a late landing.
Cash or card, as you tell us when booking, or on a corporate account.

Questions
51 miles by road, typically 1 hr 25 min to 1 hr 45 min. The route crosses Greater London, so the time of day matters more than the mileage.
No. The fare is fixed when you book, so London traffic on the day does not change it. It depends on your pickup and the class (Standard Saloon, Executive, VIP and Minibus). Ask on WhatsApp, the form or 01483 310310.
Yes. Meet and greet in arrivals is available: your chauffeur can wait with a name board in the single terminal and take your bag from there.
No. The ULEZ covers every London borough, including the Royal Docks, and meeting it is our side of the job: you do not pay a separate ULEZ charge on top of your fixed fare.
Very well. London City is a single-terminal airport that pitches its speed to business travellers. Check-in desks open two hours before departure; the latest check-in time is set by your airline, so confirm it with them.
Yes. Regular travellers to Canary Wharf and the City can book by email on an account without re-entering details each time.
Outside the rush hours either side of the working day, where your flight allows it. Either way, we set the pickup from your flight and the likely traffic, not an optimistic estimate.
Yes. Many London City trips are a single day away, so we book the drop and the evening collection together.
On the day
A clean car at the door, a chauffeur in a dark suit and a quiet cabin to work in.
